THE HEIGHT OF FASHION....

PUSS IN BOOTS....

...I think, was the first male, feline character to wear high heels. Apparently the trend for men wearing heels has returned. I say returned, because, well because, all three Muskateers wore them, rock stars (Hendrix), film stars (Tom Cruise) and short a** dictators (Sarkozy, Ghadaffi) have all worn some variation of the men's heel. These are not drag queen heels either - they are bonafide "heels for men" (or so they say). The designer Rick Owens has made a wedge boot this winter with a 5inch heel. Knee high boots with a 6.5cm heel are also on offer, and the shoe boot as seen on Tony Manero in Saturday Night Fever has made a comeback. Height seems to be a source of concern for many men - maybe a beautiful pair of Jimmy Choos would work?

I failed to make the chess team because of my height.
